Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune.
William James Settle into a comfortable position,
Either seated or lying down,
And gently close your eyes.
Inhale deeply,
Then exhale slowly,
Feeling any tension melt away.
Let your breathing find its natural pace,
Grounding you in the present.
Envision yourself surrounded by the gentle flow of a stream.
Its cool waters offer comfort and symbolize life's continual flow.
Listen to the soothing sounds of water,
A reminder of nature's calm and resilience.
As thoughts or worries enter your mind,
Simply notice them.
Place each one on a leaf in the stream and watch it float away.
With each leaf that drifts off,
You're invited into a deeper sense of peace,
Letting go without effort.
In these moments of release,
Embrace a deep sense of acceptance.
Feel the stream's waters soothingly acknowledging every part of you,
Inviting a state of peace and contentment with what is.
When you feel ready,
Gently bring your awareness back to your surroundings and open your eyes,
Carrying forward the serenity and acceptance from this brief pause into your day.
From my heart to yours,
With all my love and gratitude,
Namaste.
You
